    Just Starting Out

    Exactly what Thorsblood said. Run Arma before installing DayZ. Check out my guide in my signature also!

    Who can answer my question?

    Knew there'd be something like this.. The extra $120 for the i7 could be put in a better graphics card yielding much more. It's a budget system. OBVIOUSLY it's not a super duper cool extreme fast computer. But it's a gaming computer you can have for cheap. 4GB is NOT bottleneck, I rarely use more than 3GB. Windows 8 idle only uses 12% roughly 450MB. Limits the graphic card? The system has a GTX 460 LOL. I have a 500w with my i5 & 7950 right now. Cooling? Get a decent fan down the road if you need it. But I have one cheapass case, just took off the side panel & the max I run with a stock i5 cooler is 58C... People go way overboard with their systems in my opinion.

In game name: Prominent Alex Experience(time played): 10 Months (April) Preferred role: Support, Scout, Gathering Resources or mid-range Assault Steam: Pciris Skype: Prominent Alex What can you offer us: I'm a mature group player, always thinking what's best for the clan and my clanmates. Willing to collect resources and scout areas, I'm always looking on my shoulder. And can be a great utility

    Who can answer my question?

    No need for an i7 at all. I ran DayZ @ 30fps on medium with an Athlon x4 620 @ 3.4ghz and a GTS 250. I now have an i5 2500k stock clock & an HD 7950 high 50FPS A great budget computer - Windows 8 or 7 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832416550 Phenom x4 965 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103727 GTX 460 or 560 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130649 MOBO - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813135315 500GB 7200RPM HDD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148767 Cheapest Case - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353007 G.Skill 4GB Ram - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231421 480W PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817170014 Of course this isn't the MOST optimal setup, but it gets the job done. Around $400-$500 Done.

    DayZ Mod 1.7.5.1 Update

    Smooth Rocket... you've made DayZ SO easy for the past few months, you've inadvertently brainwashed all the player-base into thinking that bandits were supposed to be the threat. NO PEOPLE, ZOMBIES ARE.

    Can anyone give advice for a noob

    You'll find most of the advice you can use in the DayZ wiki. But check out the link in my sig. I might have some other useful advice.

    why destroy tents?

    I've laid down huge camp sites with my bus at one point. Plenty of reasons to do it. #1 - You cripple enemy morale. Believe it or not, it's huge. It effects how they play, whether they leave the server or not, etc. #2 - If they do stay, they have less equipment. Pretty self explainable. Less chance of you dying, you lower threat levels for everyone. #3 - It's more time they have to spend to reconstruct = more time for you to gather and damage them more. #4 - It's fun.

    Clan TRB causing problems on LU123

    Just shot at [TRB] K3nny right in the face at Elektro in a DE Server. He disconnected even though he shouldn't have lived the shot. They're on my shit list. I found this by googling his name.

    Change what items you spawn with?

    I hope in the standalone they come out with a system like this: You can create sort of a backstory for your character, and you can select what you spawn with. Now you can't just spawn with everything.. Certain items cost points, like lets say you start with 100 points. A can of beans costs 20, a Pistol without ammo is 100. A flashlight is 50. Painkillers is 15. Etc. Kind of like that. So everytime you spawn, you spawn with the items you selected in the 'Spawn Selection Screen' or something like that. I know people at first wont probably like it. Just an idea, I guess.
  24. Isn't there a website where you can find a certain user's name? Goodluck on your hunt, if I somehow bump into him, I'll let him know you said Hi.
